“Justin house sat and watched our two dogs ( a Bernese and a Frenchie) for two weeks and was fantastic! This was the most time our dogs have been without us and it was important for us to have someone reliable watching them. Justin spent ample time with our dogs, took them on walks and was with them consistently without any extended gaps. Justin was very conscientious in our home and cleaned completely at the end of the stay (including the refrigerator!). I highly recommend Justin for pet sitting!”

“Jolene was a dream come true. She went above and beyond. She took care of our little one as if it were her own dog. She kept us updated with lots of pictures. She was responsible and meticulous about every detail. We're already signed up to use her again! Highly, highly recommend.”

“Rae was so patient and kind with our dog. He is anxious and wary of strangers, but Rae worked with him well and left our house in a nice, tidy state. Happy to recommend Rae’s services.”

“Paula is an absolute gem! She is a wonderful and experienced cat mama and went above and beyond to make sure my sweet kitty got all the love and snuggles and care while I was away for the weekend. Paula is an incredible communicator, quick to respond, and kept me up to date with photos and information along the way. She took great care to notice my kitty’s sneezing and alerted me to potential health concerns. I felt so confident knowing Cosmo was in loving and attentive hands. Paula also went above and beyond to keep the house clean and orderly (laundry, dishes) and would whole heartedly recommend her services to anyone! Your pets (and home) will be in best of hands!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Beth provided for my dogs while I was away! From the moment we met, I felt at ease knowing my pup was in kind and capable hands. She sent daily updates with photos, kept my dog’s routine consistent, and even gave extra snuggles,. When I returned, my dog was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for.”

“Davied is starting to feel like family. Our dogs adore him and we do too. I love his updates and videos, and he handles mishaps with grace and flexibility. I see why he is a Rover star ⭐️ .”

“This was the first time that I left my cats with a non family member. Kathleen did a great job asking thoughtful questions, approaching the cats gently and communicating with me while I was gone. Everything was tidy upon my return and the cats were well cared for.”

“Van did a great job watching our dog Nina and set our minds completely at ease. It was clear that Nina was very comfortable and well looked after by Van, and we enthusiastically recommend her!”

“Quinn did an excellent job watching my doggo Kanna. They were really responsive and I appreciated the lovely photos they sent. Kanna got to go on a really long walk at a local park which she surely loved. Quinn super exceeded my expectations in all areas and I'm grateful they could watch kanna for her first time in a new house while I was away.”

“Mary is awesome! She was so great with our Labrador and indoor/outdoor cat. They’re both needy in their own ways, and she was great at tending to their quirks. She’s communicative and left our house clean. Highly recommend!”

“Zachory watched my pup while we were gone for a few days and we came back to a spotless house and a happy pup! Sent cute photos and was super easy to work with, would definitely book him again!”

“Our boy just absolutely love Brandon and Ashley. Not only are our boys end up happy and tired (rare), Brandon and Ashley are so respectful of our space and confidence building in their love for our wild ones.”

“Pablo took great care of our 2 boys! He stayed at our place for the weekend with our dogs. He sent us a lot of pictures with updates of the boys. He left our apartment in amazing condition! We have used Pablo in the past and he always takes amazing care of our dogs! We highly recommend him!”

“Will is super reliable, very trustworthy, clean and a good communicator. He obviously cares for and is good with each of our challenging animals. What more could you possibly want in an animal and house sitter!?”

“Melissa is just fantastic!!! This is our second time to ask her to take care of a cat, a dog, plants and the house for two weeks. She took care of them with love. Our pets are so accustomed with her. She sent us frequent photos and videos, which made us feel easy while away from home.”

“Stacey wonderfully took care of our senior dachshund while we were away. She regularly checked in with updates on how he was doing, included pictures & videos, and eased any concerns we had to leave him for a a few days. Highly recommend!”

Liberty and Caleb are terrific pet sitters that we highly recommend! We engaged them for two weeks and we received updates and photos every day. We had real peace of mind on our international trip as a result of their consistent communications, as well as the many "proof of fun" pics of our pets. Our condo was neat, tidy and clean when we returned. The building concierge and several residents gave them high marks as well. We look forward to our next engagement with Liberty and Caleb!

Riley took wonderful care of our pups Lua and Remy! We had a couple of curveballs we had to throw at Riley this time regarding our pup’s daily routine and schedule and she did a great job with adapting and being great with the pups! Always happy to have her take care of our dogs :)

This was my first trip away from Milo in 3 years since his brother got sick and passed. Kate was wonderful leading up to the stay to ensure Milo was comfortable, well fed, and kept current on his meds. Milo was so well taken care of that we could enjoy our vacation! We are so grateful that she took care of Milo while we were gone especially considering he’s on lots of meds and a prescription diet. Thank you again so much! And hope you’ll be able to watch him again in the future.

Russell took the time to meet us and our dog before we confirmed the reservation. Our herding breed dog is picky about people and it was nice to know that she could meet him first. Russell's stay was great - he sent updates and videos to keep us in the loop. he also dealt with minor issues with grace (front door keypad not working) and took care of trash, bringing in packages, etc. The house was in great shape when we returned.
Bethany did a wonderful job caring for my dog, Raya. Raya is always a bit shy and hesitant with new people, and Bethany was very patient in helping her feel comfortable and well cared for all week. Would highly recommend and am looking forward to having her watch Raya again!

My dogs seemed to love Paige! They were calm and happy when I returned. She communicated perfectly throughout the stay and left my home spotless. She sent pictures and even accommodated my annoying standby flight situation by staying a few extra hours to make sure the dogs got fed before I returned.

Pablo took amazing care of our older dog! She was happy and enjoyed playing with him. He was super communicative and send us pictures everyday with updates on Zoey. We so appreciated his attention to detail and his kind approach with an older dog. Would HIGHLY recommend him him to anyone needing a sitter for a furry family member!

Serenity was amazing throughout the entire Rover process, from the first home visit to providing daily updates and then making sure the home was clean when we got back. She really took time to learn our dog and help us understand what we can work on in training for the future to make things more comfortable for dog sitting. We appreciate everything she did and would be happy to have her dog sit again!

We were a bit nervous as this was our first time booking a house sitter, and this experience put us at ease. Diane took amazing care of our pups and cat, very responsive, and sent us lots of updates and pictures. We’ll definitely try to have Diane look after our boys again.

My kitties were well cared for. This was the longest stay to date and Kathleen asked thoughtful questions regarding care of my kitties and home, which hadn’t pertained previously. Kathleen kept me updated each day and sent photos of relaxed, happy cats. She responded promptly to my communications. I returned home to a clean house.
